About the Program

The Medicare Mental Health Check-In, delivered by St Vincent’s Health Australia, is a landmark national initiative providing free, fast and accessible digital mental health support to Australians.

This service delivers evidence-based Low Intensity CBT (LiCBT) to support people experiencing stress, distress and anxiety — enabling early intervention and better long-term outcomes.

This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to help shape a model of care that is:

Deliver structured, culturally safe, evidence-based mental health support
Work in a virtual-first model (phone, video, webchat)
Support individuals to build practical skills and resilience early
Contribute to shaping a culturally responsive national service model

This role goes beyond clinical delivery — it is about embedding cultural safety, representation and lived experience into a national system of care.

- Monday–Friday: 8:00am – 10:00pm
- Weekends: 10:00am – 6:00pm
Mandatory 3-week full-time induction/training (first day onsite)

What We’re Looking For

Clinical Capability

Minimum 2 years’ experience in mental health support
Experience in CBT or structured therapeutic interventions
Ability to deliver goal-oriented, evidence-based care

Cultural Capability

Strong understanding of cultural safety and community perspectives
Ability to apply culturally informed approaches in a digital model
Commitment to improving outcomes for First Nations consumers

Communication & Digital Delivery

Strong engagement skills across phone, video and online platforms
Confidence working in a virtual care environment

Collaboration & Values

Experience working in multidisciplinary teams
Alignment to mission-driven, person-centred care

Qualifications & Registration (Flexible Pathways)

We recognise there are multiple pathways into mental health practice, including community-led and culturally grounded experience.

You may be considered if you meet one of the following:

Registered / Accredited Pathways

Counsellor – ACA Level 2+ or PACFA membership
Psychologist – Provisional or General Registration (AHPRA)
Social Worker – AASW membership
Occupational Therapist – AHPRA registration
Mental Health Nurse – AHPRA registration

We also strongly encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander applicants who have:

Relevant community-based mental health or social and emotional wellbeing experience
Experience working in ACCOs, community services, or health settings
Completion of relevant qualifications, training or certifications (formal or informal)
Demonstrated capability in delivering culturally informed support, counselling, or wellbeing services

Support pathways, supervision, and development opportunities will be provided to help you succeed in the role.
